Next morning, bright and early, we started
for the New Forest, intending to make our
headquarters at the Grown hotel LyndhuIst,
grounds of William the Conoueror and his
sons. The road was superb. Leaving South
ampton, we followed the water until Totten
was reached, in the vicinity OF which village is
an extensive area of salt marsh with q curious
right of grazing attached to it-namely, that
it is open to all. except for a fortnight in
August. AT Totten we took the Lyndhurst
road. and We're soon surrounded hy the for
est. In less than two hours from the time Of
leaving Southampton we rode into the little
town of Lyndhurst, the center from which
excursions to the New Forest should emanate
Before exploring the New Forest | decided
that this was a good point from which to
take dip into Wiltshire, by spending a few
hours in the famous cathedral of Salisbury
On the way to Salisbury, about twenty Fl We
miles from Lyndhurst, we passed through the
town of Romsey, near which place Lord
Palmerston used to live. There are two
roads from Lyndhurst to Salisbury, but that
by way of Romsey is the best. l was not
much impressed with Salisbury. It stands
on high HILL and the surrounding country is
very chalky. In olden times they used to say
of this place that it was supplied with every
thing but water. Hence the poet Of that age
sang:
Here waters scarce, but chalk in plenty lies;
And those sweet notes that Philome denies,
The harsher music oft the wind supplies.

mouth. No stranger could do that. Southsea,
Milton, Portsea, the Dockyard, Landport and
Gosport all contribute to the 900 popula-
ton thcrcabouts, and which is generally
known rs Portsmouth. The odor of fish and
the presence Of sailors indicated that we had
arrived at England's famous southern seaport
and naval station. Portsmouth proper is es-
sentially the garrison and barrack town, as
distinguished from Portsea, which is the dock
yard town. The roads being exceptionally
good, we were enabled to examine the five
sections Of town on the tricycle., and must
have ridden ten miles in this way Ports
mouth proper has but few interesting build
ings 1t is largely made up of small houses in
which sailors live. These houses have curious
little protruding windows, which are built Of
wood, grained in oak, and hung with
yellow blinds. Another popularity is that
the brick work surrounding the doors
and windows of the ma jority of the houses
is painted green. Why, was unable to as
certain. A stranger is also struck with the
high sounding names given these funny little
houses with the yellow windows and green
stripes around the doors In Portsmouth, il
you own a bay window, a yellow blind up
stairs and door with green stripe Of paint
down stairs, they call it "Chatsworth house,"
cambridge villa" or "Brierwood lodge"
The effect is often spoiled by placarls over
the transoms, announcing
Lodgings for Single Men.
The shops Of Portsmouth are as unattractive
as the town and its inhabitants are. They
chiefly consist of gloomy outftters' establish
ments, enticing public houses and soldiers
and sailors eating places. There is nothing
bright about the place except the red coats of
the soldiers, and nothing picturesque save
the real old British tar, who may be seen here
to better advantage than in any place outside
Of Greenwich. The view of the Isle of Wight
from the bay is magnificent, and here you
must go if you want to thoroughly indulge
yourself and enjoy surroundings bright and
cheerful.
Il was late in the afternoon when we re-
sumed the journey back to Southampton, and
nearly 10 o'clock when the yard OF the old
fashioned Dolphin inn was reached. That
was our proudest days work. Portsmouth
and back, 40 miles, at least 10 miles riding
when there-total nearly 60 miles. We had
really reached half of the moderate" daily
run of 120 miles, and had multiplied bv three
the estimate Of those intimate friends who
had pictured me used up OH the roadside after
twenty miles a day. In Ave days We had
seen several interesting towns and passed
through good many quaint villages. The
total distance Travelled was about 1870 miles.
The distance from London to Winchester,
via Guilford and around by the camps at AL
dershot, was about 100 miles; from Win
chester to Southampton, - miles; Netley
abbey and back, miles; Portsmouth and
back, 80 miles; total, $50 miles; daily aver
age, 3S miles.

other; see Portsmouth and return TO South
ampton that night Making an early start
we reached Portsmouth about IL O'Clock, by
the lower road, riding the distance of twenty
three miles in about three hours and half.
The country we passed through was fat and
chalky. A good deal Of trade is done in
corn, slate, coal. etc. We crossed the Ham
BILE at Bursledon and took some refreslment
at Fareham, a long. struggling place of about
a mile. This is a manufacturing place. and
among other things pottery is made here.
Fart of the way we went slmos: by the
waters edge. The surrounding cosntry was
very fiat and reminded me of the Norfolk
breads. The harbor at Fsreham was pictur-
esque, and ne passed through some pretty
lanes.

LONDON, Aug. Q.
We had now been on the road four days
and were thoroughly used to the work All
stiffness and soreness arising from the first
two days exploits had disappeared and we
began to thoroughly enjoy ourselves. The
weather was clear and warm, the roads were
good, the scenery enchanting, the roadside
inns picturesque and clean, and the people
cordial and obligng. There was feeling OF
independence about this manner of travelling
which had never before experienced. We
could come and go at pleasure. We could
stop and enjoy pint of shandy gaff and a
smoke and resume our journey, or could
stay to lunch, or stay all night. Our shapely
iron steed stood at the door ready at mo-
ment's notice. 1t needed neither rest. nor
food, nor Harvesting. And then we were not
above the people. Not a tramp passed us
without asking for copper, not a country
man without greeting, and oftentimes
leisurely padded along beside good natured
pedestrian, conversing and learning curious
and interesting facts about the section of
country we were passing through. / began

LONDON, June 30.-Reports from Constantinople
are a little more favorable to-day. The great
struggle now is with the weak and pliable sultan.
Abdul Hamid is unwilling TO sign anything unless
he gets guarantees against Russian and French
aggression There is q strong feeling here against
this. Salisbury, though deeply anti-Russian,
probably will refuse TO do anything OF the kind.
The important fact is whether France or Russia Is
leading the anti-English cabal. II France, Eng
land might afford to despiSe the whole movement.
II Russia, the affair might prove dangerous In the
extreme.

LONDON June 30.-Political interest at this mo-

clique Is hard at work endeavoring to persuade
Lord Salisbury that 1t strikes fatal blow at the
landlords interests and should be given up. The
premier is always inclined TO take the old tory
view on the land question, and has, believe,
given ear TO these complaints, and If his opinion
were taken the government would probably de-
eide to drop the measure. Against this. however,
the uniOniSt leaders, notarly Harrington ana
Chamberlain, are protesting very strongly. They
the government and tuS abandonment would leave
them without shade OF color for their support OF
Salisbury. The chances are their emphatic repre-
sentation will carry the day. but the bill has been

Schnaubelt the alleged thrower OF the bomb at
the Haymarket riot, has addressed a letter ID the

nal to be authentic The letter Is dated Chrisiiana

Schnaubelt attended the meeting on the Haymar-
keU and witnessed the proceedings i went home
before the meeting was over, ana mad not the least
idea that the fact OF my being there would prove
so fatal 70 myself. But man thinks, and the black.
guardism or the police has its own sway. The day
following the Haymarket events i went 10 work,
not apprehending anything wrong. My employer
brought me the news that the editors OF the
Arbefter- -Zeitung had been arrested and the paper
stopped" Being one OF the trustees OF
the sOcislistic publishing society, I felt
obliged to what was TO be
done and went to the Arbester Zeifunq offlce. A
band or detectives like vandals were at work in
the composing room destroying the type and
forms &C. They also found material for the prep
aration OF bombs namely, type ana stereotyped
plates. My brother-in-law, NJ. Schwab was also
arrested despite the fact that he was absent from
the meeting at the Haymarket. 1 thought he
would be let free under bali, but soon discovered
my mistake. The next day again went 10 work.
but soon two blackguards invited me 10 go 10 the
chief. After questioning me at great length they
let me go, but, nevertheless, thought it advisable
TO get out OF the way FOR while. stayed near
Chicago until was informed that was a much

the bomb, because the actual thrower OF the bomo
could not be found by the search hounds for want
